The dopaminergic basis of human behaviors: A review of molecular imaging studies

..The adapted protocol is feasible for use across neuropsychiatric disorders in which dopamine has been implicated and is sufficiently sensitive to detect within-subject changes between 2.7% and 5.5% in striatal and limbic regions. ..
